Hi Adam,

As Brewster mentioned, we are now creating epubs on-the-fly. When our
code stabilizes, we will start adding them to our items.

If you go to a book scanned in our Scribe system, you can generate a
link that will produce an epub. The link will have the
form /download/id/id.epub

For example, for this book:
http://www.archive.org/details/lettersfromcatpu00jackiala

You can get the epub here:
http://www.archive.org/download/lettersfromcatpu00jackiala/lettersfromcatpu00jackiala.epub


The books in the Children's Library collection might make a good
starting point:

Preparing a presentation would be great! We will try to figure out what
the actual presentation time slot will look like...
